Housing: Ownership Status and Tenure

Variable note:

This is a variable that is fed forward from previous waves to route respondents appropriately in the questionnaire. To aid data collection, information reported at an earlier time is fed forward to the respondent to personalize the question. Rather than ask a question about the number of other rooms in the accommodation, the question might say: When we interviewed you on [ff_Idate], you said you had [ff_Hsrooms] other rooms in the accommodation. Is that still the case? (excluding kitchens and bathrooms)

Question asked in the latest wave:

household_w14.hsrooms

Question label:

Number of other rooms in accommodation

Question text:

And how many other rooms do you have in your accommodation, excluding kitchens and bathrooms?

Question interviewer instructions:

‘OTHER ROOMS’ ARE LIVING ROOMS, DINING ROOMS, STUDIES AND PLAYROOMS, BUT NOT CONSERVATORIES UNLESS USED AS A LIVING ROOM ALL YEAR ROUND
